Hull-down finder

Gun Depression Finder

Sort vehicles by gun depression so you can see who can actually fight hull-down.

    How to use this tool

    More negative depression is better for ridges. This list sorts by the datamine gun_depression field — still verify turret limits and gun mantlet in protection analysis.

    Sort ground vehicles by gun depression so you can see who can actually fight hull-down on ridges — values from the datamine gun_depression field.

    • Filter to medium/heavy tanks for ground RB.
    • Pair with the compare tool for two candidates.

    Hull-down shopping in War Thunder

    More negative depression is better for ridgelines. This list filters to ground turret vehicles so aircraft gun angles do not pollute the ranking. Always verify mantlet limits and suspension assist in the hangar.

    Combine with the Thermal Finder when you want hull-down night fighters, or with Vehicle Comparison when two mediums are close on depression but far apart on repair.

    Frequently asked questions

    Why are planes excluded?
    Aircraft gun elevation/depression extremes wreck a hull-down leaderboard. This tool is for ground RB shopping.
    Is depression the same as gun depression in arcade?
    Values come from the datamine field used across modes; maps and suspension still change what you can peek.

    Limitations

    • • Ignores gun horizontal limits and suspension assist.
